University of Maryland-University College

I have been a UMUC student for 2.5 years now. I started my education at a main stream college and then kind of lost my way. I have had some great educational experiences here at UMUC. My main complaint with UMUC is the disorganization among their administration. I live in MD! I should be able to get a hold of someone to give me a straight answer on what classes I need to take in order to graduate. I have been told several times now several different things concerning what I need in order to graduate. I was supposed to be done May of this year, and then I found out I needed 12 more credits. I then went to work trying to complete these credits over the Summer. I thought I would be done on August 18th of this year. I found out this morning that I need yet another class. I am supposed to start Graduate school this Fall (not at UMUC). If I am not done with my classes by August then I have to defer for a year! I have already paid a nonrefundable acceptance fee to this graduate school. Moreover, I just want to be done with my undergraduate degree. I will have enough (120) credits by the end of the Summer. How can these people just lie to adults about their futures???
